Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

In Zuri's house, the three women were chatting happily as they had dinner.

When Fay heard a car pass by, she couldn't help asking, "Ahem! Will Mr. Pierce come here tonight?"

The last time they all had dinner here, Luka showed up all of a sudden. He paid utmost attention to Chelsea. As Edmund's assistant, Fay couldn't stand it.

She didn't want such a thing to repeat itself today. Otherwise, her boss would be unhappy and his chances of getting back with Chelsea would reduce drastically again.

Zuri gave her a teasing look and asked, "Why do you ask, Fay? Do you have a crush on him?"

"Of course not!" Fay denied it in a hurry.

Zuri laughed and took a sip of wine.

She knew that Fay didn't have a crush on Luka. More so, she was aware of what was going through her mind.

Chelsea started coughing uneasily after Luka's name was mentioned. She looked out the window to check.

Just like Fay, she didn't want Luka to come here. She still didn't know how to face him after she turned down his love proposal.

Zuri passed her a glass of water and watched her carefully. With her eyebrows raised, she asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? Why did you get so nervous all of a sudden?"

Chelsea knew that she couldn't get anything past Zuri, so she told them of how Luka professed his love to her.

Zuri smiled knowingly and leaned back on the chair. Luka's confession was what she had expected since a long time ago. However, Fay was shocked. She asked in surprise, "What! Mr. Pierce professed his love for you?"

She reasoned that she had to report this to Edmund immediately.

Chelsea held her chest and sighed. "Yes, I was so taken aback."

Munching on a chunk of chicken, Zuri commented, "Chelsea, I told you so. You refused to believe me when I told you that he had feelings for you. Hope you now realize that I can see through everything."

Zuri leaned toward Chelsea and suggested, "Luka is a good man. How about you give him a chance?"

"You shouldn't force her to date him when she doesn't want to. Love should never be forced," Fay commented before Chelsea could say anything.

In her opinion, it was pertinent for the feeling to be mutual before two people could date each other.

Zuri opened her arms wide and countered her. "Who is forcing her? It might seem like that, but I am not. Besides, love can be cultivated slowly. I have a first-hand experience of this. Chelsea needs to give Luka a chance. She might fall in love with him in the process. I think they will make a good couple."

"Zuri, you know that I also have first-hand experience of such a relationship. And you also know how it ended. I don't want to repeat my mistakes," Chelsea uttered, giving Fay no chance to argue with Zuri.

On Zuri's part, she had pestered Colin to date her for a long time. She was able to get him to love her back, but it didn't end well.

In the same vein, Chelsea had gotten married to Edmund just because she loved him. She tried to get him to reciprocate her love for years.

But what did she get in return?

She got pain and indifference. In the end, they got divorced. Chelsea was yet to heal from the pain.

After a while, Zuri said, "Come on, girl. Don't give up on love just because you got heartbroken once. You and Edmund ended up divorced because you aren't meant for each other. Forget about him! It's time for you to give love another try."

Fay's heart sank when she heard those words. How could Zuri say that Chelsea and her boss weren't meant for each other?
